Angel, a Primary 4 student at Namutambi Primary School in Mukono District, faced a challenging ordeal after a motorcycle accident left her with severe injuries to her left arm. Due to financial constraints, her caregiver couldn’t provide proper medical care, resulting in her condition worsening despite prolonged antibiotic and painkiller treatments.
Her situation changed when she participated in a Sports Festival for Children with Disabilities (CWDs). INUG staff noticed her deteriorating health and referred her to Afaayo Child Health Agency. There, Angel was diagnosed with chronic osteomyelitis of the left ulna, requiring urgent surgery.
With the support of INUG and Afaayo, Angel received the necessary medical treatment and surgery to correct her arm. Thanks to this crucial intervention, Angel is now a happy and healthy student, attending school regularly and enjoying life with renewed energy. Her recovery highlights the significant impact of timely medical assistance and community support.
